Ever since Xiaomi announced MIUI 12 and started rolling out beta builds, it has been adding new features every other week. Recently, a feature called “AI Shutter” was unearthed in the MIUI Camera app code. Now, developers once again find several other new modes in the same app, which make use of long exposure shots.
The strings for different long exposure shots in MIUI Camera app were spotted by XDA Senior Member kacskrz and Telegram user @Deiki. According to them, users can select different modes for long exposure shots such as “Moving crowd”, “Light painting”, “Starry sky”, “Silky water”, “Star trails”, and “Neon Trails”.
Since long exposure shots require the phone to be kept steady, the strings also mention using a tripod. That said, it is not sure which Xiaomi/Redmi/POCO smartphones will have support for these modes. As of now, they are live on POCO F2 Pro aka Redmi K30 Pro according to a Telegram user called @hardziol who also shared the screenshot attached above to XDA Developers.
The revamped MIUI Camera is the only MIUI 12 system app to get the most number of new features after its reveal. It added support for multiplicity photography known as “Magic Clone” (debuted on Mi 10 Youth Edition), gestures to access additional options, Google’s Top Shot like feature called “AI Shutter” (yet to go live), and the new long exposure shot modes.
